The club say: “Nottingham Forest Football Club would like to express its thanks to Burton Albion and Notts County for each hosting a pre-season home game for The Reds whilst the substantial programme of works completes at the City Ground ahead of the Premier League season. Further ticket information will be released in the coming days.”
The Reds are not playing at the City Ground in pre-season as infrastructure works, including expanding the press box, are being completed. There is little more than a month to go before they travel to Newcastle United on August 6 for their opening Premier League clash. Their first home match will be against West Ham United on Saturday, August 13.
